With the training, on medical terms related to low vision, teachers will adapt and/ or adapt teaching materials and resources for students with low vision according to their visual conditions? In view of these research questions, the main objective was to promote continuing education for teachers care, that qualifies them to understand medical terms about low vision, and so can reflect on their practice, adapting materials and strategies according to the visual specificity of each student.
